I think it is a mixed bag when it comes to Conservative Science Deniers...The more business oriented ones probably know how the bad the environment really is but really don't care as long as they get theirs NOW! However, the ones who have a more religious background probably believe all the BS that is floating around or anything that will confirm their want for the same science institutions who poo-poo on their mythologies to also be wrong about the environment. Of course there is a lot of overlap.
